Debbie spent many years in the corporate world as an IT Business Analyst. Her friends told her she had a natural talent for massage, so she went to the Atlanta School of Massage, and learned to do it professionally. It was a side gig, as she would not give up that full time job. This did however, open her up to more of the healing arts. It was a passion for her – she was like a sponge for healing modalities and has spent tens of thousands of dollars, to learn all she knows. She continues to add to her repertoire.

 

Ever the compassionate volunteer, and motivated by her loss of dear friends to HIV, she took the second volunteer training class for Aid Atlanta in 1981. In 1986 she founded the AIDS Action Coalition in Huntsville, Alabama which recently celebrated its 34th anniversary. AAC, now Thrive Alabama has provided services to more than 100,000 people in the HIV community.

​

It was at the 2007 “I Can Do It” conference sponsored by Louise Hay that she serendipitously attended Dr. Darren Weissman's LifeLine Technique seminar; which was a profound, life-changing two hours. “To this day, I can’t explain what happened to me in that room.  However, I left knowing the LifeLine Technique was to be an integral part of my future."  She became a Certified Lifeline Practitioner after several trips to Chicago for training with Dr. Weissman, and an in-depth oral and written exam. 

 

In 2010 fate forced her hand, as she was laid off. She struggled to find work, even  with an extraordinary resume’. She got zero interviews. It was baffling. Her father fell ill, and she moved to Alabama to help care for him, and when he passed she moved her mother to Atlanta. She spent a lot of time with her mother and it would have been impossible to work full time. She took a few clients here and there to keep food on the table, and still had no luck finding work. This, it turns out, was all part of the Divine Plan.  As her clientele grew, Life On Fire Healing was born (the name came through loud and clear from her guides).

​

She continued her path to a full-time healing practice, as she learned Pranic Healing, and then pioneered the technique of Atlas Balancing (now known as Dao Tha Soundcodes) by learning from its developer, Elisabeth Westermann of Germany. Debbie is one of only three practitioners allowed to teach Dao Tha Soundcodes in the United States. She learned Bioenergetic Transmission, and was one of the first 25 people to be certified in this modality.

​

The journey continued, as she learned more and more and took basic ideas from numerous modalities, to create her own signature work. It is by far the richest, most complex, farthest reaching modality she has ever encountered. She pondered what she should call it and her guidance came through with “Energetic Fusion”. She knew immediately that it was perfect because it was absolutely the fusion of every technique she had ever learned – and then some. Her healing modality was unique and she gained a reputation as a “healer’s healer”.  Her work allows for a session that is uniquely designed for each client and  helps create balance in the mind, body and spirit - the essence of true healing. She added Spiritual Response Therapy to her repertoire in 2020.  This, combined with Energetic Fusion, seems to be the consummate technique.

​

In 2020, Debbie partnered with Carina Hart and HH Collective Wellness, as well as continuing with her own clients. This has been a beautiful experience and she plans to continue both. Debbie radiates the powerful energy of someone who is living her truth and following her intended path. Who knows what’s next? The sky’s the limit!
